Beware! Time Share salesman

I had read the reviews after i booked this trip with my family. We were greeted by freindly folks at the front desk, then they turned us to the TimeShare folks. Pretty typical, they won't take no for answer. I finally told them in was out of a job and they backed off. The grounds and the room were very, very nice. I would stay again, but beware of the sales pitch.

Close to Disney and lots of things to do!

We loved that this resort was close to Disney (about 10 mins away). Upon check-in the staff does escort you over to try and sell timeshares. After saying ā€˜no’ a couple of times we were on our way to our room! We booked just a standard studio room with the kitchenette. It was nice to be able to cook some meals, since we were traveling with our 2 year-old son. The first morning we were there we did encounter a mouse in our room! After talking to the front desk, they moved us do another room and gave us a three day play pass. There are many things to do on the resort, (putt putt, lazy river, Hippo slide) however, they do cost extra. This is not like a normal hotel either. There is no daily room service, if you want clean towels, you need to wash them. As for customer service, we had a good experience with them. My son locked his stuffed dino in the safe and when we called the front desk, we had someone there unlocking it within 10 min. This hotel is right by a Target and a Publix. I highly recommend ordering a Cuban sandwich from Publix, they are amazing! This was a great place to stay. I recommend this place with families with kiddos. If you don’t mind paying the extra fee for a play pass, there is a lot to keep them busy!

This resort was fantastic.It does't matter what age you are you'll enjoy it.The best part is your such a short ride to all the theme parks.We played golf on the Reserve Golf Course,a beautiful course for all levels.The kids really enjoyed the lazy river and water slides. We relaxed at the pool by Breezes.Food and drinks were great.Wherever we ate at the resort we were never disappointed. The staff here very friendly and helpful,They make you feel right at home.We will surely recommend Orange Lake Resot to all our family and friends

Great place for a great family vacation

We were looking for a place to spend quality vacation with my 2 and half year old. She is too young to spend the whole day at Disney World but this resort provided us with the right mix of location, comfort, amenities and value. We stayed for a week at Holiday Inn Club Vacations on Kissimmee. We would spend most mornings either in the pool or boating after having a late breakfast in our room or at one of the restaurants at the resort. In the afternoon, my wife and I would relax or watch a movie while my daughter took her afternoon nap. In the evenings, we would play miniature golf, spend a couple hours at Downtown Disney or go for a nice sit down dinner. Overall, a fantastic relaxing vacation. There was no pressure of visiting or sight seeing, all we wanted to do was relax and spend quality time with the family. Holiday Inn Club Vacations was just the right place for what we wanted and we are very glad we stayed there. We will be back in a couple years to visit WDW.

So much better than expected

Hotel was beautiful and clean. The basic room had 2 beds and a single sleeper sofa. Microwave, fridge, cooktop and dishwasher. Restaurants were not too overpriced. About 30 min from Universal. 15 to Disney. Time Share was the usual but longer and more high pressure than promised. Lazy River 10 minute drive to the other side of the resort but we preferred the pool at our building.
